Our family used to kid my grandmother, a proper lady, about her eating
habits, and not eating enough vegetables.  One day at a holiday dinner, she
had taken enough, and announced "Today I'm going to eat every bean, and pea
on my plate."  The table exploded with laughter.  To my knowledge, she never
understood what we found so funny.
